Silly RAM Question.... Bulldozer

[OCDStevo]

Will todays RAM, say :

or
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-060-GS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1517

for example be expected to work with Bulldozer when it arrives?

Main reason for asking is that I'm thinking of getting a few bits and bobs towards my new build that I'm planning for April\May and with todays RAM prices I may get that now but wouldn't want it to not work with BullDozer if I decide thats what is going to pwoer my new machine rather than SandyBridge.

Yes it should do, the lower volt stuff will work.
I don't know if the specs are out yet but I can't see AMD making a mem controller that doesn't use the existing low volt ram.

Can't see why not.

Quite a few sites say Bulldozer will support DDR3 1866 so could be worth looking at that
speed to.

Yup, at the moment I'm wondering if its worth getting some of the cheap OCZ mem while its available, but with a view to the memory going in a Bulldozer setup I'm wondering if the fastest/lowest latency but higher voltage stuff is the best choice, or for potential lower safe voltage on also 32nm chips if the lower voltage stuff while slightly slower, isn't the best option.

Anyone have an idea how the lower voltage stuff clocks, does most of it go as high with a bit more voltage anyway?

Not paid any attention to memory in so long, completely out the loop.

I'd take the Ripjaw offer personally - got both brands at the mo and G.Skill is by far the more cooperative for me! The OCZ gold has given me nothing but misery (first pack DoA, then failure to run stock speed/timing/volts) since I got it

...now I'm tempted by this week's offer. Need a lockpick for my ironbound wallet though
